Publisher's Description

SlimCleaner is a cloud-enhanced Windows cleaner that uses crowd-sourcing to optimize PC performance. SlimCleaner combines all the essential tools for cleaning a PC with its stream of real-time community feedback and recommendations from the cloud. By accessing this contributive cloud, SlimCleaner obtains the latest information about software, services and toolbars, no matter how recent. Using the SlimCleaner cloud, users can rate applications on their PCs and provide comments about the features, functions and usefulness of various pieces of software, browsers, toolbars and other items. SlimCleaner uses this community feedback to improve its own optimization features and let users see the community ratings for various items and settings on their PC. The easy-to-use interface features tabs that let consumers clean their PC, analyze settings and disable or uninstall programs that are no longer useful, based on the choice of the consumer. With one click, users can run any SlimCleaner optimizing function, such as the cleaner, start-up and services optimizer, cloud-based uninstall manager, and others. In addition, by allowing users to scan suspicious files with its built-in cloud AV functionality, SlimCleaner helps facilitate detection of malicious code using information from several anti-virus engines or the public VirusTotal API. SlimCleaner is the newest product in a suite of cloud-based PC utility software from SlimWare Utilities, makers of S limComputer and SlimDrivers.

What's new in this version:

Version 1.6.12403 includes minor bugfixes in the UI for easier interfacing. It also includes modifications to user inputs for more intuitive controls and better security on the SlimWare Utilities social network.

Very fast at detecting the unwanted data. Sleek design. Great at providing info related to process. Ability to upload info that helps you and others in the future. Uninstaller included, but haven't used it yet.

Cons

None as of now - still testing the product

Summary

So wow! I was blown away at the speed of this product (Slim Cleaner). It detected over 350mbs of unwanted data in a matter of seconds. Literally SECONDS! Removed the data in less than a minute. Other programs approximately 3-5 minutes to detect and remove depending on the amount of data.the other tools included I haven't used yet, but have no doubt they'll work fine - if not better than other programs. I would recommend this product based on the speed and precise of its cleaner alone. In regards to the other features included, I'm predicting they're excellent, but I'll have to try them out first.

Free!!!! Its fast, it does what it says it will do and its better than the 2 programs I PAID for hand down... LOVE IT!!! Thank you for helping the little people!!

Cons

Havent found or seen any yet..

Summary

Like most people we all need to keep our computers updated, optimized and cleaned.. We all buy the products that claim they can perform the best job and spend alot of money and the product DOESN'T DO WHAT IT CLAIMS!!!! SlimCleaner and all its other programs do exactly what it say it will do and its unbeleivable that it is so fast. Someone pinch me and wake me up!!! Its also FREE!!!!

User-friendly whether you're computer illiterate or someone like me who has basically grown up around computers.Can be made portable, which is great for when I work on my friend's & family's computers.Cloud-based infra-structure, which is awesome.

Cons

None that I have come across or can think of.

Summary

SlimWare Utilities has basically hit the ground running, providing excellent software designed on a cloud-based infrastructure. Just like it says in the above description, users can rate applications themselves. So if you're unfamiliar with something, simply click on the "more info" button and see what others had to say about it first, or leave your own rating for it too.If you haven't done so already, d/l the other free programs offered by SlimWare Utilities, (SlimDrivers & Slim Computer). Along with SlimCleaner, these three great programs will have your computer running just like it did the day you first turned it on. :)

It looks like scare ware, i wouldn't trust this software. the company use to make rouge programs.

Summary

stick with CCleaner.

only use programs that you trust, If something seems too good to be true, it most likely is.
